Chapter 50: Heated Conference III
[Amid Empire, Grand Hall]
With the declaration of Emperor Amos that he will take the burden of everyone who had lost something in this war, especially the sin of killing the soldiers of the other kingdom's, Asagi then suddenly had a bad foreboding premonition that the talk may take if such a grim atmosphere continues
Without hinting to anyone on what she was about to do, Asagi then slightly glanced towards Gabriel's location as she sent a secret telepathic message just between the two of them
While Asagi was preparing to execute her own move secretly, the other Kings, Queen's, and representatives of the other kingdom's alongside Queen Celestia and Pope Michael were shocked by the sudden proclamation of the Emperor, after all bearing the burden of all the losses in war was too much for just a single person to carry, thus causing all of them to react
Of course while the people inside the grand hall were shocked by this sudden proclamation of the Emperor, all the people that were watching the broadcast on the other hand were in a uproar
While the Empire's people felt somewhat worried and sorry for their Emperor, the people of the other kingdom's felt like cursing towards the said Emperor, after all with that sudden proclamation, it felt like as if the Emperor himself was washing away his sin of the declaration of war which cost a lot of loss of life and entitling himself as a goody two shoes of a Saint
At that two completely different sides were currently spectating the said broadcast itself
At that very moment the King of the Orboume Kingdom then said
"You... do you know what your saying? Bearing all the burden of the effects of war all by yourself? Do you see yourself as a saint? Stop joking around!!!"
"Im not! I meant what I said... I'll carry all the burden of my empire, since I'm practically the one who declared such war which caused a thousands of death" replied Emperor Amos
"Redirecting the anger of all the people to yourself just to save your citizens reputation, your truly care for your people eh? But do you think that by just proclaiming such a deed would ease the people of our kingdom?" Asks by the King of Estia Kingdom
"The people wanted you dead, in fact some of us in here wanted you dead" added by the Queen of Orboume Kingdom
"It will need more than just reparation to solve this current predicament, after all were talking about of the feelings of our people, in order to appease all the people of our land, your life must be forfeited" said by the Queen of Estia kingdom
In that moment both Queen Celestia and Pope Michael were worried of this sudden turn of events as they glanced towards the Emperor, after all were talking about the value of life here, which is somehow quite a sensitive topic to discuss
In fact even the Soldiers of the Empire stationed in the hall were worried of losing their Emperor, nevertheless Emperor Amos still stayed calm at the situation
"I see, so my life is what needed to appease everyone... well even thought I don't want to die, it looks like I have to give up on my life to appease you people"
In that moment, Asagi then finally spoke up towards everyone as she couldn't just let the Emperor die at that very moment, after all for some reason she couldn't help but feel like the Emperor would be a very important person in order to help her uncover the truth of being transported into this world
Its like the Emperor himself is a piece of a jigsaw puzzle itself, thus she can't let the Emperor die now
"If that is the case then we'll just have to repect the people's wishes, Emperor Amos needs to die, he will die through decapitation, in one weeks time his public execution will be handled by my Kingdom's men, I do hope that none of you dare to object?"
In that moment everyone in the room were shocked by Asagi's sudden proposal, but not giving any chances to object, Asagi then immediately concluded the session
"Since no one objected, the decree will be done in one weeks time"
After Asagi declared such statement, Gabriel then suddenly used his ability to manipulate space itself to immediately end the broadcast, forcing people to intake the information that the Emperor of the Amid Empire will be executed in one weeks time
With the end of the broadcast, Many citizens of the three kingdom's were overjoyed by such a justifiable decision made by the Queen of angels and even hailed her as someone who is on the side of justice, on the other hand the people of the Empire, suddenly turned gloomy at the end of the broadcast as they were forced to accept the fact that their Emperor who led them to an immediate prosperity will be executed in one weeks time
At that two sides once more revealed their reaction at the sudden end of the broadcast
*********
With the broadcast being cut off just like that by Gabriel, Asagi then turned back towards the people in the conference hall as she suddenly asked the King's, Queens, and representatives of the two kingdom's
"Tell me... do both of you kings and queens of Estia Kingdom and Orboume Kingdom hate the Emperor, do you really wanted him to die just because your people wanted it to happen? Are you just gonna forget how much benefit he has if he is still alive?
"What... what are you saying? Of course I do!" Said by the Queen of Orboume Kingdom
"Putting aside the feelings of your subject and your own personal feelings... do you think killing him is worth it?" Asks Asagi
"What are you implying? Some of us here lost someone precious because of the war, do you think we would just let the opportunity to kill the perpetrator go?" asks by the Queen of Estia kingdom
"I see so your making a decision based purely on your emotions eh? But everyone dies in the end right? Death always catches up to people... if your loved one dies because their lifespan had ended, will you blame God or death itself?"
"....."
"Im not telling you to forgive him, I'm not such a saint to suddenly side with the person who declared war against all kingdom's in the middle continent, what im saying is I needed him alive, It won't be beneficial to us if he dies" said Asagi
In that moment the King of the Orboume Kingdom suddenly reacted
"This is preposterous!!! Who cares about any of that, I say life for a life... I don't care if his death would be beneficial to us or not, what I wanted is him executed immediately"
Upon hearing the King of Orboume Kingdom's words, Asagi then turned towards Emperor Amos as he nodded back as he told them of his clairvoyance ability whatbhe saw in the future
Alongside that Asagi made Gabriel took on the job to show them an illustration of Emperor Amos vision through the use of rune law of space which seemed like a trailer of some war movie, of course this was based on how Emperor Amos describe his vision
Even though revealing this would be risky since not everyone would believe his claims, they still had to try since they had no ither choice but to convince the other rulers to cooperate with them to ensure Emperor Amos survival
"As you saw through the use of space illustration, that is what Emperor Amos saw in his vision, due to that he was maddened by the thought of such ending of humanity that he suddenly sought strength to build up a force to contend against such an enemy, because of that war has erupted among the four nations of the Middle continent with the objective to unite all humans under his lead and prepare for the sudden end... I know that not everyone would believe what you saw, but I assure you, due to this reason alone I can't let Emperor Amos die just like that... I know some of you still held a grudge on him, but I plead you take your personal feelings aside and help us cover up his execution"
With that some of the people who bore a grudge against Emperor Amos suddenly felt like they had nowhere to go as they repeatedly remember the scene they saw using space illustration
If such a vision was true, then Emperor Amos survival was a must, but they also had their own personal feelings to attend to, thus putting all of them on the spot
Unfortunately they were all adults and know what truly matter at the moment, thus even though they still have doubts of that vision and still held a grudge agaisnt Emperor Amos, they had no choice but to keep their anger and hatred inside a tight seal within their hearts and thought up a way to counter such force illustrated by the vision
After all if they were put on the spot wherein they saw the end of mankind, surely enough they too would go mad as stress accumulates enough to cause them to suddenly bring everyone under his or her own rule through the use of war
In the end they somehow sympathize a little bit towards Emperor Amos, but only a little bit, nothing more nothing less
"But aren't you the one who declared that he would be publicly executed in one weeks time?" Asks one of the representatives
"Yes indeed! Of course not Emperor Amos himself but a body double, a fake will take his place to be executed, a person who looks like him and feels human like him"
In that moment they were once again stunned by the sudden revelation as they asks once more
"Thats impossible! A double? How would you do that?"
Hearing such question Asagi smiled
"Simple! I just need a corpse of a human body or a life size clay double of the emperor, after I had them i would make one of my angels to bring them to life by transferring the soul of something towards that body double... after that I would use whats called as make up to make the double exactly like the emperor and decieve the whole populace at the execution site, of course never underestimate what a make up can do"
"Breathing life to something that is dead? How is that possible?" Asks by Pope Michael seemingly shocked as well
"Well truth be told Ariel one of my archangel has the rune law of transmigration which in other words a kind of reincarnation power... for example by transferring the soul of a flower towards the dead object, that object would then be brought to life with the soil of the flower inside another's body, of course despite that it will still act as if it was still a flower, but with Ariel precise control over it,she can make the soul of the flower act like a human to a certain extent... this is the power of rune law of transmigration, somewhat creepy right?"
"....."
With that everyone was speechless for a moment as Pope Michael suddenly reacted
"Hold up! A flower has a soul?"
"Well yes! Anything that is not made by human hands has a soul, is just that human soul is more distinct than anything else which somehow puts them in another category, but nevertheless everything has a soul... "
Once more everyone was once again silent
"The only problem we had now to cover up Emperor Amos execution and to decieve the populace... is someone who would succeed over the position of the emperor, after all if Emperor Amos is executed, then we must assume that he will never be found by the people at all like forever, since the dead can't be brought back to life" said Asagi
With the problem of who will succeed the Emperor when he is gone and into hiding away from the people since he is presumably dead on paper, Emperor Amos then suddenly thought up of a person
"I had someone in mind... my half brother who is born from a prostitute woman in which my father had an affair, he can succeed my throne... rest assured i'll explain everything to him about the plan, so that I can tell him how to lead the people behind the shadows"
Hearing Emperor Amos sudden legacy reveal, Everyone was once agains stunned silent including Asagi as the revelation that the Emperor had a half brother himself
With that everyone reacted simultaneously
"You... you had a brother!?!?!?!"
